| | | Artist: | Bob Dylan |
| | Album: | Oh Mercy | | Track: | Ring Them Bells | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 177 | | | | Lyrics: | by Bob Dylan
Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams,
Ring them
bells from the sanctuaries
Cross the valleys and streams,
For they're deep and they're
wide
And the world's on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the
bride.
Ring them bells St. Peter
Where the four winds blow,
Ring them bells
with an iron hand
So the people will know.
Oh it's rush hour now
On the wheel and the
plow
And the sun is going down
Upon the sacred cow.
Ring them bells Sweet
Martha,
For the poor man's son,
Ring them bells so the world will know
That God is
one.
Oh the shepherd is asleep
Where the willows weep
And the mountains are
filled
With lost sheep.
Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf,
Ring them
bells for all of us who are left,
Ring them bells for the chosen few
Who will judge the
many when the game is through.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,
For the child
that cries
When innocence dies.
Ring them bells St. Catherine
From the top of
the room,
Ring them from the fortress
For the lilies that bloom.
Oh the lines are
long
And the fighting is strong
And they're breaking down the distance
Between right
and wrong | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
